Cheeseburger

Method

Cheeseburger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and pepper. Mix gently and form into two equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the grill or pan until the cheese melts.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the hamburger buns lightly. Place the cooked cheese patties on the bottom buns, then layer with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

Fries Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to create fries.

  2. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  3. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches. Fry them for about 5-7 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

  4. 8

    Drain and Season

    Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste while they are still hot.
